We all know that my love for Gwen Stefani runs deep which is why it should be no surprise how much I looooved her L.A.M.B Spring 2012 Ready-to-Wear collection that debuted in NYC a few days ago. Here are my top picks below and you can see the full collection here.

Harajuku Lovers G of the Sea

QLCJamie — Wed, 13 Apr 2011 22:09:05 PDT

So I've stated like 1,000 times how much I <3 Gwen Stefani so it should be no surprise that I'm currently obsessed with her latest fragrance, Harajuku Lovers G of the Sea.

Since "The Little Mermaid" was a childhood favorite, naturally I was drawn to this bottle. I mean, even if you're not a Gwen fan, you've GOT to give this to me...the packaging is adorable. But packaging aside (we all know I'm a sucker), the limited-edition summer fragrance is an aquatic and fresh scent with top notes of crisp apple, water lily and sweet crushed berries. Summer perfection.

Gwen Stefani is the newest face of L'Oreal Paris!

So I don't have to remind you...if you read my blog, you know about my Gwen Stefani obsession. Well, the queen of red lipstick has just been announced as the newest face of L'Oreal Paris and more specifically, the face of the brand's new Infallible Le Rouge long-wear lip color. SO gorgeous.

"I can't believe I get to be one of the L'Oreal Paris girls," Stefani told People.com. Gwennie is joining the ranks of other Hollywood A-listers like Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Eva Longoria, who all also serve as faces of L'Oreal. "To get to work with such a modern, talented group of people is really exciting. I'm a lucky girl," says Stefani. Lucky indeed, Gwen. Lucky, indeed.

The first commercial featuring Gwen will air during the Golden Globes this Sunday so stay tuned.

Holiday Gift Idea: for the fashion-obsessed friend

QLCJamie — Fri, 26 Nov 2010 11:44:03 PST

So by now you all know my obsession when it comes to all things Gwen Stefani. The lady has done it again with her new Wicked Style perfume collection. Think bobble heads gone cool. Any fashion-obsessed friend will loooooooove one of these in their stocking. My favorites? "G," which is the Gwen doll and "Love."

Love: a fruity floral of nectarine and orange flower. She wears a classic bodice red jumper dress trimmed in lace and a large bow clip. She's the innocent one.

Angel: A sparkling floral of succulent plum and champagne, Angel ditches her soft look for a more daring demeanor in a black baby doll jumper dress with a scooped neckline trimmed with white lace.

Music: A woodsy floral of swirling cedarwood jasmine and juicy apple, Music is wearing her school uniform blazer that she customized by adding pins of her favorite musicians.

Baby: A vanilla floral of white peach and glowing amber, Baby is showing off her younger side in a bright yellow and hot pink sweater layered over a bright green t-shirt. She's all about the accessories.

G: A fruity floral of peach, pineapple, watermelon and raspberry, G is dressed to impress- looking classy and sophisticated in her red and white checkerboard leggings and Gwen's signature red lip.

Gwen Stefani gets a wax figure

QLCJamie — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 21:46:29 PDT

So since my love for Gwen Stefani is eternal, I'm actually surprised that I never questioned why Gwennie didn't have her own wax figure. When I first heard about this, I secretly (or maybe not-so-secretly) hoped that the Gwen look-alike would be at the Madame Tussauds in LA, which also happens to be right down the street from my apartment, but no- alas, it's in Las Vegas.

The wax figure was revealed last week and Gwen (who, can you believe it, is 40!) stood and looked in awe at herself, immortalized in wax. It's reported that the Gwennie figure took over 500 hours to sculpt and cost $300,000 to make. Crazzzzy.

Harajuku Lovers Sunshine Cuties

QLCJamie — Tue, 04 May 2010 07:19:21 PDT

So back in November, I announced the launch of Harajuku Lovers Sunshine Cuties new fragrance line extension and I finally got a chance to check out a few of the scents. The verdict? Amazing, obviously. Gwen Stefani can do no wrong in my eyes and her fragrance collection is naturally as perfect, but what makes the Sunshine Cuties line even more adorable is their super cute bathing suites and sunglasses. I die for "Love," in particular, since she dones oversized shades...oh and who can resist the little black bubble hair on "Baby"? Mother's Day gift anyone?

L.A.M.B Fall 2010 RTW

QLCJamie — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 22:40:00 PST

Ah, another fashion week. This is officially the second Fashion Week that I'm missing since I moved to LA and yeah, I'm kinda sad about it. However, thanks to the wonderful internet, I can still see all the awesomeness that is L.A.M.B's Fall 2010 ready-to-wear collection. Gwen has outdone herself once again. Here are my favorites:

Harajuku Lovers announces the launch of Sunshine Cuties

QLCJamie — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:11:49 PST

So I've written many, many posts on Gwen Stefani and her Harajuku Lovers perfume line and it honestly keeps getting better and better. Harajuku Lovers just announced the new launch of Sunshine Cuties - a new limited edition line extension of summer scents, hitting stores in February 2010! They've changed up their outfits, tanned (I assume faux tan) the girls up and changed up the fragrances a bit based on each girl's personality. Can. not. wait. for February.

Nailpolish trend update

QLCJamie — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 18:41:02 PDT

So there's lots of exciting nail news as of late- for one, I'm sure you're all aware of our Gwen Stefani obsession here at QueenoftheQuarterLifeCrisis, so when Gwen's models showed up wearing white nailpolish we totally freaked out. Love it. The models doned Dashing Diva's "Fleet Week." Hmmmm, kind of similar to my first nailpolish obsession EVER.

Second, when I saw CHANEL's newest cult craze, Jade, a minty green color, I was reminded again of my childhood years...I was OBSESSED with the color green and I used to buy every shade of green nailpolish I could find at the supermarket. Wet 'n Wild used to make some sicko green shades that I adored. Memories...

L.A.M.B Spring 2010 RTW

QLCJamie — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 13:12:50 PDT

So here are two of my favorite looks from the 2010 L.A.M.B Ready to Wear show in New York City. My heart bleeds a little that I couldn't be there to see it live but thank god for sites like Style.com, right? I melt.
